Is there any Linux users out there? If so, what is your favorite distro? I myself like Mepis & SuSe....I'm running Mepis on the machine that I'm on right now, and I have SuSe running on another. I like the " goodies " that are included in the Mepis Distro, but, after doing a " upgrade " I've had a few issues....like with the space-bar on the key board not responding unless I do a reboot, and depending what kernal I boot, sometimes the screen will freeze, then have like a " rainbow " effect, then go blank.....but that's very rare now. The only issue I've had wit SuSe is everytime I boot the machine into Linux, I have to reconfigure the sound card....it's not saving the configuration for some reason.
Other than those minor issues, I'm now a Linux addict, from XP. I no longer have spyware, adware, pop-up/unders.....and can do anything in Linux that I could with Windoze plus more....

Does anyone know of any WiFi hotspots in the C.P. Merrillville area? (Free) I know of the Pay ones already. Was just wondering if anyone might be hosting freebies.....doubtful, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

The pop culture coffee shop 1/2 block north of the square on main street in Crown Point. Also soon the city is planning on making the whole CP downtown a wi-fi free zone soon.

Alright but I have a laptop that I decided to wing it with and the video card wasn't supported (didn't bother to even look into that before I installed) and I get nothing on the screen. The live dvd works just like it was installed on your computer (its a bootable dvd and some offer cds) but if you want to risk it ok.

Although if you have name brand hardware you shouldn't have much of a problem.
